parked in sainsbury's tonight, nice space with nobody around to cause door damage, started walking away from the car when a 4x4 cut across the parking spots, stopped adjacent to mine and had a good stare at it before driving off = one proud owner  |

I parked up in a car park last week and there were 2 couples gettng out of a car a few spaces down. As went to get my ticket I over heard them aurguing between themselves about the car
one was saying "so it's just a tarted up fiat"
While the other one was saying "no they are fantastic it's a seperate company now under the umbrella of fiat. Like Ferrari"

I can top it all off anyone here watch fifth gear? cos if you do you may remember me getting asked by Tim which car was better on fuel bettween a petrol and a diesel I got it right (petrol) and managed to be cheeky and get on TV but either way Tim was asking about the car and the car and mentioned that when they got their hands on the AGPSS if it didnt have the leaky window fitting he would of got one.

First day I had mine there was an elderly gent and his wife looking at it when I got back and he said "so what's an Abarth then?"  - haven't really had anyone else do it since. Although it was an absolute scream at the west midlands convoy meet for Duxford when there was half a dozen of us parked up and sitting in McDs and this guy and his dog wandered around and looked in every one. Well the guy did - the dog was more interested in sniffing the tyres in a slightly worrying way Paula |

I watched a guy in a clio 182 yesterday driving slowly out the car park but head turned staring at my car, as if to think, 'just what is it?' I thought he was gonna drive straight onto the main road without looking..!
